A potential fan account (@PloybertCorti) noted that there is "no betrayal" and added,
"you have just lost your mind and no one wants to be associated with you or the things you preach fir very obvious reasons."
Fans expressed their confusion and wondered why Kanye West listed his children on the list. One netizen (@recreatings) wrote,
"what bros own kids do ?"
Another user (@selina_cavallo) attempted to explain West's motive to put out a list and noted,
"Bro just found out how life really is. More money more problems. You have to accept that everyone is selfish in this world, genuine love rarely exists anymore everyone. Do things just to take their own benefits from it. Move on, but don't forget. It's time for you to be selfish like every person you named on here and just do things for your own good."
Some fans offered support to Kanye West. One (@Kaizzerev) noted,
"YOU NEED REAL FRIENDS NOW MORE THAN EVER."
Another fan appeared to empathize with the rapper. They (@kreaytore) added,
"No one wants to admit it but Yes Ye does act insane, and is doing way more than he needs to be, and there are way better ways he could be going about things. But he’s also probably the most betrayed Artist of all time. Both can be true. Doesnt excuse the behavior but it’s true."
